I could see replacing Xenagos for azami, but there's no way Kaalia doesn't deserve to be on the list. If I had to cut that 10 down to 5, she'd still be on it, she's that strong.

 {Jenara, Asura of War} is pretty stupid if were talking competitive. Flying commander damage, 21 is easy in 1v1

Oh man, I forgot about the Clique deck. Remove Xenagos from my list and put Vendillion Clique in his place for sure.

Except narset out blitzes all of them.

Have you ever seen a maelstrom ramp deck..? I think he can easily be played just as fast as narset, if not faster

No guys! My commander is the best!

Kaalias problem is she is extremely weak to an extremely wide range of hate. 2 counterspells, removal spells, etc mean game over

You can't  play narset off the bat either.....

So now are we talking commanders on the battlefield or decks. Because now with assuming they can't land is a factor now....
Narset would be pretty weak, keep her off the field and you're fine.

He can, but playing him does not immediately win the game.

playing narset doesnt cause you to win immediately either.
